Contents Foreword by Fouad Ajami -- Introduction : Turkey's choice -- Turkish identit--from the Ottomans to Ataturk -- The rise of political Islam and the AKP -- The AKP's political victories -- Reshaping identity by restoring Islam -- The AKP's foreign policy -- Looking ahead : will Islamism replace Kemalism?
Summary Zeyno Baran examines the intense struggle between Turkey's secularists and Islamists in their most recent battles over their country's destination. Looking into the fate of both Turkey's secularism and its democratic experiment, she shows that, for all the flaws of its political journey, the modern Turkish state has managed to maintain an essential separation between religion and the political realm-a separation that is now in jeopardy.
